Subject: URGENT -- RESULTS OF AMISSIS-RE INGRESS JOURNAL TRANSLATION PROJECT & SECTION U RECON


The translation project has been completed, and with it, we now understand a number of things.


About the Ingress:


1. The Ingress was built by a civilization of extremely intelligent beings who the Caducans called The Creators, with the goal of expanding exploration. It utilizes "Living Energy" and can be dangerous if it's unstable.
2. The Moira's Ingress is the only known mobile Ingress. It was designed to assist the ship in traveling to extreme distances at unheard-of speeds through timeslip technology.
3. Translation has shown us that the symbols being emitted by the Ingress are repair instructions and navigation coordinates.
4. Repairing the Ingress and utilizing the timeslip technology will allow us to reach the Midway Hub in a relatively short amount of time. The Captains have embraced this option. (Not a moment too soon, if you ask us.)
5. If you think you can contribute to the repairs, the Ingress team can use you. Contact Tony Stark soon as possible. [ And the next part, in noticeably different and obviously Tony-written language: ] or, y'know, just show up and wow us. you won't hear me complaining.


About the Mirtis:


1. A thorough investigation of Ploiatos's former quarters yielded some useful information. Evidence including his journal and the state of his quarters shows that his transformation was gradual and severe, and was caused by the Ingress.
2. It appears that he may have been visiting worlds through the Ingress.
3. Please find images of the journal pages attached for informational and archival purposes. [1], [2], [3].





[ And then at the end, a notable addendum: ]


good job, you clever bastards

[Despite having been on the Moira for a number of months now- not to mention the year that seemed to flash past in the blink of an eye- Evie is only now making her first public broadcast to the network. She looks somewhat subdued, settled in the library in her own clothes with the hood of her overcoat cast back from her face and a small pile of books scattered around her. They appear to be volumes on world history.

She looks at the camera on her MID and smiles awkwardly.]

A quick question, if it's not too much trouble. I don't suppose there's a right answer but I'm curious. Considering how we are all out of our own space and time aboard this ship, how exactly should we treat anniversaries? Births, deaths, marriages and the like... do you think it's best to just continue with the totals as normal or would you add on the years that have passed since the day you left your own homes to today's date?

And secondly, can someone direct me to somewhere that has candles? Today should be my brother's birthday and -

[She stops herself from saying something else. How it's the... twenty second? Twenty third? Several hundreds and twenty third? anniversary of their mother's death too, but no one wants to hear that.]

Well. I would feel it would be breaking the habit of a lifetime not to mark the occasion somehow, even without him being here.

Thank you.
